This is the story of what happened to Ahsoka after Order 66. Some spoilers if you haven't finished The Clone Wars, but an amazing story. She's rapidly becoming my favorite character

I enjoyed the book. Ahsoka is probably my favorite character in the Star Wars franchise and I enjoyed seeing her story bridging Clone Wars and Rebels. Good plot and good characters. My only issue is that it felt light; a little more detail and depth would have made this more satisfying. Regardless I enjoyed it and other franchise fans probably will too.
Ahsoka? More like Ashla.
When you the name of a legendary series' breakout star boldly emblazoned on the cover, you expect some depth, a tale spanning her history and future, a true biography. This is none of that. This just fills a gap between the multiple series'. Nothing more. Much unrealised potential.

a beautifully written story about ahsoka and how she pieces herself back together a year after order 66. growing up, ahsoka was like the older sister i never had, so reading her story post-order 66, seeing and feeling her grief and trauma and finally watching her come back to herself in a new way made me very emotional. i loved the simultaneous simplicity and complexity of the writing for this book because it turned the smallest details into something that made my emotions swell enough to need to pause my reading for a moment. ahsoka is such a dear character to me and she was captured perfectly in this book. such an incredible first read!
A story about grief and healing. I think a lot of reviewers missed the point of this book and the journey. I do think there was some messed opportunities but overall so so good.
This book was everything I had hoped for from the Ahsoka novel.
It's filled with women (and women of colour!), there's action, there's pain, and it's amazing. The POVs switch over the chapters, but it's never unclear who is speaking. Definitely recommend!
The only thing that could have improved it for me personally is if Kaeden and Ahsoka had had more of an actual feelings reveal. We know Kaeden is gay, but Ahsoka is still left ambiguous, and honestly, I'm firmly in the Lesbian Ahsoka camp. Just let them kiss!

Ahsoka was a quick and easy read, perfect for my vacation. For fans of The Clone Wars or Star Wars Rebels, this book gives a bit of insight into what Ahsoka was doing between Order 66 and the beginning of the rebellion. I can’t say that any of the supporting characters were terribly memorable or compelling, but the brief shots with familiar characters were wonderful. I also think the writer, E.K. Johnston, did a great job providing insight into Ahsoka’s mind, which must have been quite the undertaking since Ahsoka is such a fan favorite!
